GARY & LAURA HOUSE

Gary and Laura, originally from Indiana, currently live in Lynchburg, Virginia, and are parents to three children. Ryan and Megan live nearby, and Nathan resides in Heaven. Early in his career, Gary served as a pastor, then as a professor teaching at the graduate level in the area of Christian ministry. Laura is a former RN, then treasured the years as a homeschooling mom, and worked in marketing for over twenty years. After Nathan’s death in 2016, they experienced the comfort found by spending time with other bereaved parents. Yearning to provide similar opportunities for other grieving parents and to challenge them to trust Jesus, Our Hearts Are Home was born. They are grateful for the privilege of working full-time with the ministry. Married for forty years, Gary and Laura enjoy walking on any beach, reading, and spending time with their children.
